The first ArcSaber 7, a 3U even-balance racket with a medium shaft that suits controlled all-round play. It is the older and heavier ancestor of the 2022 ArcSaber 7 Pro/Tour/Play family.

  • Even balance and medium flex are forgiving
  • Comfortable and accurate around the net
  • Good all-court handling for a 3U frame
  • Not built for maximum smash power
  • 3U weight is heavier than today's 4U rackets
  • Discontinued, so spare frames and grips are getting scarce

Where to buy
